SonicWall distributor Drive Control Corporation (DCC) has announced the immediate availability of the Generation 7 Network Security platform services (NSsp) and Network Security Appliance (NSa) series.
The firewalls include the new NSa 5700, NSsp 10700 and NSsp 11700 firewalls.
The SonicWall NSsp 10700 and NSsp 11700 firewalls have been designed to protect enterprise-class network by delivering up to four times the threat protection of previous-generation SonicWall offerings. This includes high marks for firewall throughout (42 Gbps for the 10700, 47 Gbps for the 11700), threat throughput (27, 35 Gbps), IPS (28, 37 Gbps) and VPN performance (23, 27 Gbps).
The NSsp 10700 and NSsp 11700 both offer 100G, 25G and 10G connectivity, delivering multi-gigabit threat protection for large environments. These higher port densities, coupled with hardware redundancy and high availability, allow distributed enterprises and large government agencies to purchase fewer appliances while supporting more secure connections as their networks grow.
The NSa 5700 firewall serves as the security backbone of hybrid environments and complement virtual SonicWall security offerings. The firewall assist organisations cost-effectively deploy, protect, and manage multiple or distributed locations without exceeding capex limits.
The new NSa 5700 accelerates secure network performance with new standards in firewall throughput (28 Gbps) and threat prevention throughput (15 Gbps) — more than four times the previous comparable SonicWall appliances. This improvement is complemented by similar increases in IPS (17 Gbps) and VPN (15 Gbps) speeds.
